Morning Star Bamboo Flooring is one of the best bamboo floors on the market today. It is produced from old growth bamboo reeds that are at least 4 years old, thereby increasing hardness. Morning Star Bamboo Flooring creates a naturally beautiful and ecologically friendly product that evokes a feeling of luxury. Quick Highlights: Strand To make strand bamboo, shredded bamboo fibers are compressed under extreme heat and pressure. This manufacturing process yields flooring that is even harder and more dense than traditional bamboo floors. Available in a variety of colors to complement and décor, all Morning Star strand bamboo products are finished with premium coating and backed by a 30 year warranty. And, since bamboo is a naturally sustainable grass that re-grows spontaneously after harvest, you can feel good about making an environmentally friendly flooring decision.

Great looking floor and easy to install. Feels a little different than hardwood. The look is more engineered than natural.
Love Love Love
We installed 400 sq ft in under 8 hrs today...the floor looks absolutely stunning. Could not be happier. We ordered the amount we needed and didn't have any bad boards.

Pros

Best Uses
We installed this floor in the whole house and looks beautiful. We have a big dog and when she runs for the door, it makes some marks, which mopping will remove. It doesn't scratch easily but if it does, all you need to use is Restore.A.Finish in Dark Walnut, shake it well before use. the flooring is extremely hard and that's why it so hard to install, we did it ourselves and it was worth it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This product is so beautiful, I decided to rip out all the carpet, and put it all throughout the downstairs, about 1200 sq. ft. It scratches so easily, even the floor sweeper scratches it, and I cannot get the scratches out. I wish someone would have told me that this product is not good for high traffic areas, and would be better suited to a low traffic place. I feel like I will have to replace them in a couple of years, and is a huge amount of money wasted. (Also it looks dirty really quickly.) On the plus side, it is a strong wood, too bad the top coat is not the same:(

Best Uses
The floors are absolutely stunning. They offer the look we wanted and we are overall very pleased. However, we wish we had really considered how much dirt and dog hair would show on this floor. We have a white and black dog and we are constantly sweeping. Though they are beautiful, I would definitely consider this factor if you have animals or an active lifestyle. We are in and out of our home and it's sometimes more of a hassle than it's worth.
Don't buy, scratches very easily which are very visible with the dark color flooring, LL scratch remover doesn't help in removing scratches either.
Pros
Cons
Best Uses
Looks great and can be nailed or glued, just be careful in glue-down installations - the "rough cut" of the boards can let some glue show at the joints. Also, the stain is not very deep with the darker finish and it seems like cuts & scratches will be very noticeable. Good news is that the distressed look of the wood is very easy to touch-up and the normal nicks & dents don't really affect the look.
Pros

The floor looks amazing and is extremely durable.

A:
This is a solid bamboo product designed to be nailed or glued to a your substrate.Q:
We have noticed that some of the boards have quite a bit more distressing than others (and much more than the demo at the store!) and dirt, etc. gets caught in them creating a cleaning hassle. If we were to sand these select boards a bit, is there a way to buy the exact same water-based lacquer that was initially used so we can re-stain them to match?1 answer
A:
Unfortunately this finish is not available in a can for retail sale. I would recommend bringing a scrap piece of the flooring to a paint store and they should be able to match the finish gloss for you. Thank you for your inquiry.Q:
My son spilled something on the floor that makes it look spotted. What do I do to clean it? We have the dark bamboo floor which was installed in September.1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
Bellawood Cleaner or Bona Kemi cleaner should work.Q:
Hi,1 answer
A:
All wood species can change color over time due to oxidation or when exposed to light. In some species, the change can be more dramatic and may darken in color over time, while others tend to lighten. Currently there is no known value set for Patina or color change of a species so contractors and or customers should be aware of this normal condition. The patina process is unrelated to the urethane finishes.Q:
I'm looking for floor registers/vents to match this flooring. Any suggestions? (black wrought iron doesn't quite work; does this manufacturer make any stain, for instance?)1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
We have oak vents that may be stained to coordinate. You can match stain color at a local paint store or homecenter that has computer color match systems.Q:
Can this bamboo strand solid be floated or does it need to be glued down to concrete?1 answer
A:
This is a solid 9/16" product designed to be nailed to a wood substrate or glued down.Q:
can this floor be glued down on a concrete slab if glue contains a moisture barrier, such as Bostick1 answer
A:
Yes it can, always test slab for moisture content and use appropriate adhesives/ moisture barriers. |
